RE: Mine turned into a parallelogram when pushed from the end . . .

After weighing some records, I determined that I would already be quite close to the weight limit, even though I would not have the shelves totally full, so I talked to my father, who does a fair amount of woodworking, and he has suggested rather than bracing with a sheet of plywood (it would be difficult to find one big enough), to make an X brace using a couple of 10' 1X4's. He says that this is a very surprisingly strong formation, and there will be no chance of collapsing into the parallelogram. This is also an easier task than trying to mount it to the wall, anyway. He did this on my brother's audio/visual equipment rack that he built for him, and it works great. So I think I will go that route.
